Question: How do you tell the difference between a New Zealand Police Officer, An Australian Police Officer and an American Police Officer?




Answer: Pose the following question:


"You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge


knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, raises the knife, and charges.



You are carrying a Glock .40, and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do?"



NZ POLICE OFFICER'S Answer:


Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!

Does the man look poor or oppressed?

Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?

Could we run away?

What does my wife think?

What about the kids?

Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?

What does the law say about this situation?

Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it?

Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?

Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?

Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?

If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me?

Should I call 1-1-1?

Why is this street so deserted? We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that
would discourage such behavior.

If I raise my gun and he turns and runs away, Do I get blamed when he falls over running away, knocks his head and kills himself?

If I shoot him, and lose the court case. Does he have the opportunity to sue me, cost me my job, my credibility and I will lose my family home? .

Depends if the Aussie is a Victorian Policeman, they go:
BANG, stop or I'll shoot.:D

Hypothetical of course ...a NZ policeman wouldn't be carrying a Glock or any other firearm because they are unarmed ( or at least when I lived there they were )

I guess that's why it says :

"Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?"
